When sentencing takes place all such criminals should be fined the costs of rebuilding such businesses. Serious jail time should also be implimented till the biteback loons get the message that their actions are not welcomed by the general public.

"On the night of July 29-30, 2010 a poultry factory farm underconstruction in Sprötze (Lower Saxony) was targeted in an arsonattack. The entire building collapsed. Property damage is estimated at€500,000. The factory farm was going to be one of over 400 suppliersfor Europe's largest chicken slaughterhouse, planned for Wietze. Therewere many reasons for this action:The environment is substantially harmed by the building of new factoryfarms. Ammonia, contained in the manure of animals, contaminates thesoil. This causes acid rain, which leads to the death of forests.Water is polluted and permanently damaged.Enormous amounts of food and water are wasted in raising non-humananimals. To produce 1kg of chicken meat, on average 10kg of grainand/or genetically modified soy and more than 1,500 liters of water isrequired. Rainforests are cleared for the cultivation of soy. CO2 isemitted speeding up climate change. Numerous animal and plant speciesare exterminated as well. Even more CO2 is produced by the trucksneeded to transport animal feed and the non-human animals.Non-human animals are viewed and treated merely as a resource. Forexample, in zoos and circuses, as pets, for fur, leather, meat, eggsand dairy, animal testing, etc. All their needs, feelings and desiresare denied them. They do not have the freedom to be in charge of theirown lives.This operation was carried out in order to directly save lives, as allprevious discussions and arguments had failed.We are aware of the psychological pressure and the financial loss thatwill burden the property owners. However, this is not in proportion towhat chickens would have to suffer there. All attempts to rebuild thefactory farm, to make profit at the expense of individuals, will bestopped! As long as non-human animals are subjected to the dominationof humans, all animal exploitation enterprises will be the target ofsimilar actions. This action shows how animal abuse can be confronteddirectly.We would like to take this opportunity to point out that we rejectcomparisons of the situation of non-human animals today and thevictims of Nazism. Causes and effects of different forms of dominationare complex and differ on many points. These should not be ratedagainst each other but all confronted and fought against. The fightagainst oppression is a part of the fight against speciesism,capitalism, racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, etc.We encourage everyone to fight, in their own way, for the liberationof all individuals from all forms of tyranny.
